My IP Address & Location Guide
What This Tool Shows
- IPv4 Address: Your public IPv4 address — the traditional 32-bit address (e.g., 192.168.1.1) assigned by your ISP.
- IPv6 Address: Your IPv6 address if supported — the newer 128-bit format (e.g., 2001:db8::1) with virtually unlimited addresses.
- Geolocation: Country, region, city, and approximate coordinates based on your IP address. Pinpoints your ISP's routing center.
- ISP & Organization: Your Internet Service Provider and the organization that owns the IP address block.
Location Accuracy
IP-based location is an estimation and usually points to your internet service provider's nearest routing center, not your exact physical address.
- Country Level: Usually 99% accurate. Correctly identifies which country your IP is registered in.
- City Level: Accuracy varies (50-80%). May show a nearby city rather than your exact location.
- VPN/Proxy: If using a VPN, the location will show the VPN server's position, not yours.
Common Use Cases
- VPN Check: Verify that your VPN is properly masking your real IP address and showing the expected server location.
- Network Troubleshooting: Share your IP address with tech support to help diagnose connectivity issues.
- Geo-Restrictions: Check which country your IP is registered in to understand geo-blocking on streaming services.
- Security Audit: Confirm that your public IP hasn't changed unexpectedly, which could indicate network configuration issues.

lightbulb Pro Tip
If your IPv6 shows "Not Supported", your ISP or router may not have IPv6 enabled. Contact your ISP or check your router settings to enable dual-stack (IPv4 + IPv6) connectivity.
